Verify correct installation.

In line with the gas supply

Found in a well-ventilated kitchen
Coupled to electricity (should it have electric ignition or lights)

Lighting the gas burners manually Turn the burner knob to high flame setting.

Light the burner simultaneously using a gas lighter or match.
To let the flame stabilize, hold the knob in for five to ten seconds then release.
Press and turn the burner knob toward the flame symbol to set auto-ignition.
Pressing will produce a clicking sound; this is the spark igniting the gas.
Hold it for a few seconds, then release gently.

Operating the Oven

Gas heating and manual control dials are features of most Westpoint ovens.

Slightly before lighting, open the oven door.
Adjust the oven temperature knob to your preferred level—say 180°C.
Press and hold the oven knob; then,, depending on your model, use a lighter to ignite the oven burner at the bottom (or auto-ignite).
To let the flame steady, hold the knob in for five to ten seconds.
Closed the door softly.

Warm for ten to fifteen minutes before stuffing food inside.

Cooking Using the Grill

Use the grill as follows:

To allow ventilation, slightly open the oven door.
Turn the grill switch or knob to ON.
Ignite either manually or automatically.
Arrange your meal on the barbecue rack and keep a careful eye on it to prevent scorching.

Changing the Fire Burn

Most Westpoint gas cookers let you control the flame via burner knobs. Start high flame and lower for simmering.

Turn off the cooker.

Turn the knobs always back to the OFF state.
Turn off the gas flow from the main valve when not in use for long stretches.
Before cleaning or covering with the glass lid—if one exists—let the cooker cool.

Cleaning and Maintenance Advice

Weekly clean burners help to avoid clogged systems.
Wipe spills right away with a moist towel.
On surfaces of stainless steel or enamel, steer clear of abrasive cleansers.
Check gas connections often to find leaks.

Safety Advice Regarding Gas Cooker Use

Never leave the stove running unattended.
Stow combustible objects away from open flames.
Check for gas smells before using.
Put a carbon monoxide detector in the kitchen.

If a suspected gas leak arises, remove the gas and evacuate the venting area.
